About the Namsos hurtigbåtkai – Jøa hurtigbåtkai crossing
AtB provides up to six daily sailings on the domestic route connecting Namsos with the island of Jøa, with crossings scheduled every day of the week. The first departure from Namsos is at 09:45, and the final sailing of the day leaves at 21:10. Crossing times vary between 35 and 40 minutes to cover the approximately 11 nautical miles over the Namsenfjorden.
Timetable and Fares
The service operates a consistent daily schedule. As a Norwegian public transport route, fares are integrated into the AutoPASS system, which primarily charges for vehicles based on length. Foot passengers may often travel without charge on these road-ferry connections. The timetable is structured to support local transit needs throughout the day.
Jøa's ferry terminal also connects with other local services. Separate routes link the island with Abelvær hurtigbåtkai, Namsos hurtigbåtkai, and Sør-Gjæslingan hurtigbåtkai. These additional connections expand travel options from the island's port to other destinations in the region.
